I, for one, am highly entertained by batsmen who do the same but get caught in the deep. I love robust ambition constrained by mediocrity of execution \u2013 it\u2019s my type of entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>Despite sharing <a href=\"\/category\/Indian%20Idol\/\">Amit\u2019s fondness for <i>Indian Idol 3<\/i><\/a>, I love the potent mixture of tacky loopiness and bravura singing on Zee TV\u2019s <i>Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2007<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"more\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take Bappi Lahiri for instance. He covers himself with bling, itraos constantly, breaks into song at random moments, gets embroiled in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aspisdrift.com\/2007\/06\/girly-voice-versus-third-class-person.html\">hilarious controversies<\/a> and pronounces singers as the Britney Spears and Shakira of India. And we\u2019re still on the guru who barely gets out of his seat.<\/p>\n<p>While <i>Indian Idol 3<\/i> focuses on the competitive camaraderie of its contestants, <i>SRGMP<\/i> is powered by hierarchical and relational interactions that reflect traditional Indian social values. All of this staged on a set that looks like the adda of a sworn Sith nemesis of 007.<\/p>\n<p>And lest you think it\u2019s all a hoot, <i>SRGMP<\/i> is lined with excellent singers. How good? Only Emon and Amit from <i>Indian Idol<\/i> could go toe to toe with any one of their best 10. But it would have to be on their best day. And their competing singer from <i>SRGMP<\/i> would have to make a particularly bad song choice. Then they\u2019d be in with a chance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2007 By: Zee TV A lot of people like batsmen who step out to the bowlers and hit huge sixes.
